Luis Enrique remains Tottenham’s preferred manager despite Chelsea talks

Despite talks with Chelsea, Tottenham remain very keen on appointing Spanish manager Luis Enrique as their next permanent manager.

In recent weeks, Enrique has emerged as a top target for both Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea. With both London clubs looking for new managers, the former Barcelona man is one of the most in demand out of work managers.

And, despite talks with Chelsea this week, Enrique remains one of Tottenham’s preferred managers, according to 90Min.

One of the most appealing aspects of hiring Enrique as manager is that he has a track record of success with Barcelona.

The Spanish coach won the lot with the Catalan giants and was then given the job with Spain. Of course, his tenure as coach of the national team did not go exactly as planned. Nonetheless, Enrique remains a top coach on the European market.

Tottenham and Chelsea are clearly desperate to get their next appointment right. Both clubs appear to be prepared to wait until the summer to ensure they have done everything possible to make the right decision.

Enqrique, who has been described as a ‘unbelievable’ manager, would undoubtedly bring a winning mentality to Spurs.

There is absolutely no doubt that Luis Enqriue is one of the best coaches available right now.

The Spanish coach has done it all as a manager and a player and commands a lot of respect. He, like any new Spurs manager, will require signings and time. But he does have a distinct philosophy, and Tottenham may be buying into it right now.

Enrique could succeed at Spurs if he is given time, support, and the right players. It’s no surprise, then, that they regard him as one of the best they can get right now.
